Emergency Plumber FAQ

Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the power off at the breaker box if needed first.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating valve to stop all the water to your house.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable things from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You may know it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is normally found on the boundary close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

We realise a blocked drain can be a major problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare instance that we can not get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until we come back.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

We endorse attempting to clear simple blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not clear the obstruction, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water System Problems

You tend to do not think about how much we depend upon easy fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Time to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Crafers West emergency plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly.

From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.

Usually, you barely even remember them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a serious issue that must be sorted immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and split. In a new residence, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our urgent plumbers will diagnose and repair your broken pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you have a troublesome faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It is not only irritating drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you want a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist same day plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Crafers West plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a length of string of some kind, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
